0622823GoelThe Conference brings together disparate bioengineering research specialties including cell and molecular engineering, tissue engineering, and functional tissue engineering - with a focus on biomechanical engineering. Sponsoring organizations include the American Society of Mechanical Engineers-Bioengineering Division (ASME-BED), the Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES), the U.S. National Committee on Biomechanics (USNCB), and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (IEEE-EMBS).The Program Committee and the Plenary speakers list (from academia, industry, and health care) represent the leaders in the field. A booklet will provide program details to the participants of the conference. All technical presentations will be two-page extended abstracts in a CD format, to be distributed free to all registrants. Copies of the CD will also be provided to all sponsoring societies. The CD is to serve as the proceedings of the meeting. All seven of the previous Summer Bioengineering conferences have had outstanding representation of women and minorities. This years organizing committee includes several women: Drs. Jennifer Wayne (Virginia Commonwealth University); Dawn Elliot (University of Pennsylvania); and, Michele Grim (Wayne State University). The large student representation, as well as the family-friendly atmosphere of the conference, has served to promote the involvement of women.Intellectual Merit: This conference is the premiere meeting for bioengineering with a focus on biomechanical engineering. The planned lectures provide important cross-fertilization of ideas, concepts, tools, and approaches. Broader Impact: In addition to the direct impact this conference will have on the mainstream bioengineering community, this meeting will serve an important cross-fertilization role. Bioengineers, engineers from other disciplines, cell and molecular biologists, biochemists, biophysicists, and other scientists are expected to participate in the meeting. Therefore, the conference is expected to have a much broader impact than if it were to be attended by just the bioengineering community. And, approximately 40% of the attendees are expected to be students.

这次会议汇集了不同的生物工程研究专业，包括细胞和分子工程、组织工程和功能组织工程，重点是生物机械工程。赞助组织包括美国机械工程师协会生物工程分会(ASME-BED)、生物医学工程学会(BMES)、美国国家生物力学委员会(USNCB)和电气电子工程师医学与生物工程学会(IEEE-EMBS)。计划委员会和全体演讲者名单(来自学术界、工业界和医疗保健)代表了该领域的领导者。一本小册子将向会议的参与者提供计划的详细信息。所有技术报告都将是两页的光盘格式的扩展摘要，免费分发给所有注册者。该光盘的副本也将提供给所有赞助社团。裁谈会将作为会议的议事程序。之前的七届夏季生物工程会议都有杰出的女性和少数族裔代表。今年的组委会包括几位女性：詹妮弗·韦恩博士(弗吉尼亚联邦大学)、道恩·埃利奥特博士(宾夕法尼亚大学)和米歇尔·格里姆(韦恩州立大学)。大量的学生代表，以及会议对家庭友好的气氛，促进了女性的参与。智力上的优点：这次会议是生物工程的首次会议，重点是生物机械工程。计划中的讲座提供了重要的思想、概念、工具和方法的交叉培养。更广泛的影响：除了这次会议将对主流生物工程界产生直接影响外，本次会议还将发挥重要的交叉促进作用。预计生物工程师、其他学科的工程师、细胞和分子生物学家、生物化学家、生物物理学家和其他科学家将参加会议。因此，与仅仅由生物工程界参加相比，这次会议预计将产生更广泛的影响。而且，预计大约40%的与会者将是学生。
